If you are looking for draw runners that can take the weight and are of good quality hafele would be a good place to start. They have centers in every major city, and if they don't have it they will get it in a couple of days. Their range is huge, they have a sight that has their cataloge. My fridge slide is made out of a old teachers desk that had a filing draw in it. Had to extend it by 20cm or so but does the job. A 40L engel with bag fits perfect. Has a bolt going through the base into the floor, which was already there. Cost $0.

whish ever you get make sure they dont have nylon tyres...although they make for quieter operation they crack after awhile and you'll need a new set of runners... spare nylon outer sleeve/tyres are not available as I have found out.

Hi
Laura,
Re the Polyairs, (I'm very happy with them) just check with the installer where they are going to put the inflation valves. The first set I had installed, the valves were mounted right out proud on the bumper stops, neatly set up to be clobbered by the first thing I backed into.
Next time around, in advance I sussed out a nice protected place for the valves, then told them to bung them there.

got the valves put on the rear step tucked in besides the lights for rego plate....tucked away so all good for knocking them...
Bucky got his put next to the fuel
tank filler...in there....that'd be a good spot too....
the bloke wants to see how they are working when she's fully loaded....thinks they n=might pop out the side of the spring and rub on the shock....LH side only...

Richard,
Me and another are currently looking at getting some coil rites from the US. Damn cheap and easy to install. If your interested in getting at the same time, we may be able to save on freight.
Have a look at trucksprings.com , find out what model you need and let me know. We will be ordering next week sometime.

Mike, Firestone part no. is FIP 4125. From checking etc Trucksprings may not be able to supply as this is not applicable to the current model Mitsubishi's over in USA. More than happy for you to try and order the above with yours and if it happens great.
What car/4WD are your coil rites for.
Thanks, Richard.
